The Russian Church of Sofia is officially known as the Church of St Nicholas the Miracle-Maker. The church was consecrated in 1914. The church remained open after the Russian Revolution and during the Communist period in Bulgaria (1944?1989), though priests and church-goers were carefully watched by the State Security police. The exterior was recently restored by the Russian Government.
